Description of problem: Our systems updated gcc from gcc-11.5.0-2.el9 to gcc-11.5.0-5.el9 yesterday, and it obsoleted the following package: gcc-gnat-11.5.0-3.el9.x86_64 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gcc-11.5.0-5.el9.x86_64 gcc-gnat-11.5.0-3.el9.x86_64 How reproducible: Always! Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install gcc-gnat-11.5.0-3.el9.x86_64 (or earlier, I suppose) 2. dnf -y upgrade 3. gcc-gnat has been obsoleted Actual results: # dnf install gcc-gnat [...] Package gcc-11.5.0-5.el9_5.x86_64 is already installed. Dependencies resolved. Nothing to do. Complete! # rpm -q gcc-gnat package gcc-gnat is not installed Expected results: gcc-gnat should be installed. Additional info: This bug seems to be a recurring problem when gcc is updated, it has been reported twice in the previous year: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2329043 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2283622

Just bumping the version in EPEL endless high isn't an option, given there are sometimes changes the RHEL gcc package that need to be reflected in gcc-epel. An alternative could be to not use a programming language that Red Hat does not consider relevant for their target audience aka paying customers.
